• This position seeks a Field Service Representative (FSR) who will perform as a Subject Matter Expert (SME) and who will be responsible
• for on-the-ground training and integration of the Tactical Ground Reporting System (TIGR) principally within Continental United States (CONUS) based Army and Marine Corps units. TIGR is a multimedia geospatial information management system which allows Soldiers and Marines at the patrol level to collect and share information to improve situational awareness and to facilitate collaboration and information analysis among combat leaders.

• Principally supporting users at Company level and below, TIGR also complements existing reporting systems that focus on the needs of users at Battalion or Brigade level and above. TIGR's graphical, map-referenced user interface is highly intuitive, and allows multimedia data such as voice recordings, digital photos, and GPS tracks to be easily collected and searched.
• The system also uses a state-of-the-art data distribution architecture which minimizes the load on tactical networks, even while allowing digital imagery and other multimedia data to be rapidly exchanged. TIGR offers a unique multimedia view of the battlefield, in real time, to soldiers from the patrol level on up. Today’s asymmetric battlefield requires soldiers at all levels to be collectors and interpreters of intelligence.
• The system offers patrol level leaders the opportunity to conduct company and patrol level IPB both pre and post mission. The system provides information rich reporting, collaboration, and knowledge-sharing through the integration of digital pictures, audio, video, and GPS tracks, and other types of media, into the collection, debrief, and analysis process, in real time.

• Responsibilities include: the development of tailored standard operating procedures (SOPs) regarding the employment of TIGR related to supported operations; over the shoulder training; mentoring of transitioning units; and facilitating the deployment of new systems.

• This is a full-time position principally located within the US; the FSR may reside anywhere in CONUS. We will provide TIGR application software training for the FSR in Arlington, Virginia prior deployment.

Requirements

• US Citizen. This position requires a current Secret clearance and passport.
• As required, the Field Support Representative may be deployed overseas principally to non-combat areas for short durations (~30 days, ie: Italy, Germany).
• The Field Service Representative requires prior and recent in-depth leadership, knowledge and experience with tactical ground combat operations as well as a good understanding of the patrol debrief and tactical intelligence analysis process - especially as it relates to adapting TTPs and SOPs to meet rapidly changing tactical threats.
• US Army and US Marine Corps Senior NCOs/Junior Officers with recent combat operations/combat patrol experience represent an ideal candidate. Stability and support or counterinsurgency operations experience is desired.
• The Field Service Representative must be Microsoft Windows literate, be competent with the Microsoft Office Suite, and a quick-learner of new Web-based applications. Prior counter-insurgency, tactical, or training experience is a plus.
• Candidates must possess extraordinary interpersonal relationship skills and be self-motivated and self-disciplined. Experience in military teaching or training is a plus. Minimum High School Diploma; college degree preferred.
